N-Sea Group has entered into an agreement with Geo Plus to long-term charter the Dutch flagged vessel Geo Ranger, a modern hybrid survey and ROV support vessel. 

The Geo Ranger will accompany the Geo Focus which is already under N-Sea management and control.

The fuel efficient vessel Geo Ranger is equipped with smart on-board technology, comprising various different sensors and a plug-and-play system for additional, project-specific customer equipment. With a focus on improved workability, durability and flexibility, the Geo Ranger aims to set a new standard for survey vessels.

Geo Ranger Features:

  • Workability: Providing a high workability of up to 2 metres significant wave height.
  • Plug & Go solutions: To ensure hassle free (de)mobilisation, the vessel has several solutions for quick and safe installation of equipment. In addition is the vessel standard provided with high-class survey equipment.
  • Sustainability: The Geo Ranger is very fuel efficient vessel and has many features that contribute in a sustainable way to the environment. This means the vessel uses for example diesel/electric propulsion for low fuel consumption, heat recovery, LED lightning and bio-degradable oil.

The Geo Ranger has a proven track record when it comes to safe and efficient offshore operations. With DP station keeping capabilities, an overall length (LOA) of 41.60 metres, 8.70 metres width, and a working draft of 2.25 metres, it is the ideal vessel to operate in North Sea, Baltic Sea, Irish Sea and Mediterranean Sea.

Furthermore, the vessel is equipped with 8T A-frame ideally suited for towing arrangements, geotechnical survey, and other subsea activities.

The vessel and its experienced crew will play a key role in realising N-Sea’s ambition to become the subsea services contractor of choice. With the long-term charter of the Geo Ranger N-Sea is strengthening its footprint and position in the subsea service industry, following the expansion of the offshore markets.

N-Sea will have the vessel under full management and control. By having dedicated vessels, N-Sea can provide safer and more efficient operations through working with fully committed and integrated teams. 

With this new dedicated vessel initiative N-Sea can offer its clients, a unique set of subsea solution capabilities supported by experts, better serving the needs of our clients.
